Indications and Usage:
1 indications and usage retavase is indicated for use in acute st-elevation myocardial infarction (stemi) to reduce the risk of death and heart failure. limitation of use: the risk of stroke may outweigh the benefit produced by thrombolytic therapy in patients whose stemi puts them at low risk for death or heart failure. retavase is a tissue plasminogen activator (tpa) indicated for treatment of acute st-elevation myocardial infarction (stemi) to reduce the risk of death and heart failure. ( 1 ) limitation of use: the risk of stroke may outweigh the benefit produced by thrombolytic therapy in patients whose stemi puts them at low risk for death or heart failure. ( 1 )
Warnings and Cautions:
5 warnings and precautions increases the risk of bleeding. avoid intramuscular injections. ( 5.1 ) hypersensitivity ( 5.2 ) cholesterol embolism ( 5.3 ) 5.1 bleeding retavase can cause significant and sometimes fatal bleeding. avoid intramuscular injections and other trauma to a patient administered retavase. minimize venipunctures. avoid puncturing noncompressible veins, such as the internal jugular and subclavian. if an arterial puncture is necessary, use an upper extremity vessel that is accessible to manual compression, apply pressure for at least 30 minutes, and monitor the puncture site closely. as fibrin is lysed during retavase therapy, bleeding from recent puncture sites or other recent trauma may occur. should serious bleeding (not controllable by local pressure) occur, terminate concomitant anticoagulant therapy. withhold the second retavase dose if serious bleeding occurs before it is administered. 5.2 hypersensitivity reactions hypersensitivity reactions have been reported

Description:
11 description reteplase is a non-glycosylated deletion mutein of tissue plasminogen activator (tpa), containing the kringle 2 and the protease domains of human tpa. reteplase contains 355 of the 527 amino acids of native tpa (amino acids 1-3 and 176-527). reteplase is produced by recombinant dna technology in e. coli. the protein is isolated as inactive inclusion bodies from e. coli, converted into its active form by an in vitro folding process and purified by chromatographic separation. the molecular weight of reteplase is 39,571 daltons. potency is expressed in units (u) using a reference standard which is specific for retavase and is not comparable with units used for other thrombolytic agents. retavase (reteplase) for injection is a sterile, white, lyophilized powder for intravenous injection after reconstitution with sterile water for injection, usp (without preservatives). following reconstitution with 10 ml of sterile water for injection, the resulting concentration is 1 unit/ml to allow for delivery of 10 ml (10 units reteplase). the ph is 6.0 ± 0.3. retavase is supplied with overfill to ensure sufficient drug for administration of each 10 unit injection. each single-use vial delivers: reteplase 10 units dipotassium hydrogen phosphate 131 mg phosphoric acid 49.3 mg polysorbate 80 5 mg sucrose 350 mg tranexamic acid 8 mg
Clinical Pharmacology:
12 clinical pharmacology 12.1 mechanism of action retavase is a recombinant plasminogen activator which catalyzes the cleavage of endogenous plasminogen to generate plasmin. plasmin in turn degrades the fibrin matrix of the thrombus, thereby exerting its thrombolytic action. 12.2 pharmacodynamics in a controlled trial, 36 of 56 patients treated for myocardial infarction had a decrease in fibrinogen levels to below 100 mg/dl by 2 hours following the administration of retavase as two intravenous injections (10 + 10 unit) in which 10 units was followed 30 minutes later by a second dose of 10 units. the mean fibrinogen level returned to the baseline value by 48 hours. 12.3 pharmacokinetics based on the measurement of thrombolytic activity, retavase is cleared from plasma at a rate of 250-450 ml/min, with an effective half-life of 13-16 minutes. retavase is cleared primarily by the liver and kidney.

Nonclinical Toxicology:

Clinical Studies:
14 clinical studies retavase was evaluated in three controlled clinical studies comparing retavase to other thrombolytic agents. in all three studies, patients were treated with aspirin (initial doses of 160 mg to 350 mg and subsequent doses of 75 mg to 350 mg) and heparin (a 5,000 unit iv bolus prior to the administration of retavase or control, followed by a 1000 unit/hour continuous iv infusion for at least 24 hours). the inject study compared retavase to streptokinase on mortality rates at 35 days following acute st-elevation myocardial infarction (stemi). inject was a double-blind study in which 6,010 patients with no more than 12 hours of chest pain consistent with coronary ischemia and either st segment elevation or bundle branch block on ecg were randomized 1:1 to retavase (10 + 10 unit) or streptokinase (1.5 million units over 60 minutes). patients with cerebrovascular or other bleeding risks or with systolic blood pressure >200 mm hg or diastolic blood pressure >100 mm hg wer
